Horns Rev

Coastal and Reef Features

Horns Rev is a shallow sandy reef formed of glacial deposits in the eastern North Sea, about fifteen kilometers off Blåvands Huk, the westernmost point of Denmark. It was long marked by a lightship, since replaced by light buoys, and the reef is now also the site of the Horns Rev Offshore Wind Farm.
